Senator, you engaged in a political attack. You're entitled to do that, and I'm entitled to respond. The reality is that you were very quiet as a party when Mr Taylor wanted to put fuel in Texas, and you were very quiet as a party when there was no minimum stockpiling obligation under the coalition. You have been very quiet as a party whilst—actually, did they vote against the coal and gas price caps and energy relief? Did you vote against those as well? That's interesting. You voted against coal and gas price caps for Australians, and now you complain about price increases. I think the hypocrisy is on display, if I may say.
